RE: Does the "Friendzone" Really Exist?
Recent experiences in my life has me thinking about the friendzone...as I continually learn the realities of today's ever-changing modern American women.
I believe it's possible to be banging a girl while being friendzoned
I've always thought friendzone was determined based on two factors, fucking (or not fucking) and friendship (behavior). Now I'm beginning to think it's far less about the fucking (or not fucking) and far more about the friendship dynamic.
Typical friendzone: Easy to see, guy is really good friends with a chic (depends on her emotionally) he would love to bang. He wants to fuck her so he spends a bunch of time with her, talks about his emotions, she talks to him about her asshole guys she dates, etc.
Fucking-friendzone: Potentially more self-delusional for the guy. Actively fucking a girl who has already friend-zoned you (perhaps the origin of the term, boyfriend).
I have a friend who banged this chic (HB7) a few weeks ago, I think both of them drunk. She is a manager at the bar and I'm fairly certain has all of the traits that come along with the profession. He's banged her once or twice since then, but...
When I've talked to him about it, he sounds like he wants to turn this random hookup into a relationship. Seeing them interact, he clearly wants more than to simply fuck her that evening.
To put another way, he's out kicking his coverage. She's more attractive than his average, or at least than the average chics with whom he's had relationships. And this dynamic can be seen in her as well. She's somewhat standoffish to him. She's not excited about being seen with him.
Near-friendzone: Feeling the pull of the friendzone and ejecting orbit before being pulled in. We've all spent time with chics who we slowly realized, for whatever reason, didn't want to fuck us. In my experience, as with the one below, they're better potential LTR girls (or maybe that's my dismissive way of saying they're hotter chics, since potential LTR = younger, hotter, less dicks).
I recently had a good girl (young, one LT bf, hasn't dated since, doesn't drink much) with whom I shared some make outs and heavy petting, but no sex. I still see her (bc of her work), she still texts me, but I've pulled back to aloofness, understanding she wasn't going to spread her legs for me, at least right now. I should say, the aloofness comes naturally to me now because of past experiences and more abundance (two other girls I'm banging).
I suspect the difference, from a friendzone standpoint, between me and my buddy (a chronic friendzoned guy) is not in the women we fuck (quantity + hotness), but in the *type of relationships* we have. Regardless of whether I'm fucking a girl or not, I simply don't fall into that "friend" orbit. Either she's orbiting you or you're orbiting her.
